Because of the pervasiveness of computer viruses and the impact a virus-infected computer can have on the college network, all personally owned computers must be registered on the network. This allows infected computers to be quickly identified and isolated to prevent harm to other computers.

The first time you launch a web browser and attempt to connect to the Middlebury College network (after following the instructions for configuring your computer for the network), Campus Manager detects that your computer is new to the network. It begins a process of determining if your computer is adequately protected from virus infections before it allows access to network facilities.

Campus Manager has been developed to do the following:

  • Identify computers that have not been registered on the network and isolate them until they comply with our requirements for system safety.
  • Assist their owners with the installation of the proper system patches (Windows operating systems only).
  • Assist their owners with the installation of up-to-date anti-virus software (Windows operating systems only).
  • Register the computer and link it to its owner.
  • Release the computer from isolation so it can operate on the Middlebury College network.

Below you'll find detailed instructions on how to register a Faculty/Staff/Student computer, or a guest computer.  Please contact the Helpdesk if you have any questions helpdesk@middlebury.edu x2200.
